Observed temperature from NASA versus the 1850–1900 average as a pre-industrial baseline. The
main driver for previous periods of climatic change, since the mid-20th century, humans have
had unprecedented impact on Earth's climate system and caused change on a global scale.

is the emission of greenhouse gases, of which more than 90% are carbon dioxide (CO

international standing.[4] Temperature rise is accelerated or tempered by climate feedbacks,
such as loss of sunlight-reflecting snow and ice cover, increased water vapour (a
greenhouse gas itself), and changes to land and ocean carbon sinks.

The largest driver of warming

Climate change includes both the global warming driven by human emissions


of greenhouse gases, and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. Though there
